Details:

When the Octave:broadcast warning is set to its default value ("on"), the
dedup function issues unnecessary warnings:


octave:1> test dedup
warning: product: automatic broadcasting operation applied
warning: quotient: automatic broadcasting operation applied
PASSES 3 out of 3 tests


This can be avoided using the patch below.  This patch does not cope with
possible errors that would prevent the Octave:broadcast warning to be restored
to its original value.  Perhaps, the whole thing could be wrap inside a
try/catch statement, but I have the feeling that this is not necessary.
